About Key of Life

Who is this really for?
Ambitious people working on something real, usually while holding down a job and a full life. For many, that is their health: they are disciplined everywhere else, but keep restarting when it comes to their own body. For others, it is a personal goal, a creative project, a business, or a professional leap. If you are tired of putting off the thing you care about, or you want steady accountability you can't quite ask of friends or family, you are exactly who this was built for.
Who is Heba?
Heba Saleh is a Health & Mindset Coach and the founder of Key of Life. After her own recovery from postpartum depression, autoimmune challenges, and burnout, she learned that lasting change starts with the mind and is held up by the body. That became the way she coaches: clarity first, then rest, nourishment, and movement. She has spent over 15 years in nutrition, yoga, and movement, and has taught more than 550 yoga and fitness classes. She is a NASM Certified Personal Trainer, an RYT-500 yoga instructor, and an Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) Certified Coach. She is training as a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (expected 2027) and is a Certified Culinary Nutrition Expert. She is the author of the Eight Moments journal, writes about healing and growth on her Substack, and is a contributor to George Mason University's Thriving Together Series. She also holds a Master's in English focused on Cultural Studies. She lives in the DC area and is happiest outside in the sunshine, with 80s music playing and the people she loves close by.
Is this medical advice?
No. Heba is a Health & Mindset Coach, not a doctor or dietitian, and coaching does not diagnose or treat any condition. If you have a health condition, she works alongside your doctor, never instead of them, and you stay in charge of your own medical care.

Start here

What does mindset-led health coaching mean?
It means we start with the why before the what. Most health plans hand you a meal plan and a workout and count on willpower to carry you. I start with what matters to you, what you believe about yourself and your body, and what keeps pulling you off course. Then we build rest, food, and movement habits on top of that, so they hold up on a hard week. Research backs this up: what you believe about your body measurably changes how it responds, down to your hunger hormones. Mindset Groups works the same way for any goal.
Which offering is right for me?
The quickest way to find out is the free two-minute quiz, which points you to the right next step based on where you are right now. If your focus is your health, the health quiz shows which of the four pillars to start with. As a rule of thumb, the Eight Moments journal is the daily foundation anyone can start with today, Mindset Groups adds a live cohort and a matched accountability partner for an eight-week goal, and Healthstarter 1:1 is three months of private, mindset-led health coaching with Heba.
How do the journal, Mindset Groups, and Healthstarter 1:1 fit together?
They are built to work as one ecosystem rather than as three separate products. Eight Moments is the daily practice underneath everything. Mindset Groups is the container that turns that practice into real momentum, with a group, a matched partner, and a clear structure. Healthstarter 1:1 is three months of private, mindset-led health coaching that includes a seat in Mindset Groups and the journal. Every program includes the Eight Moments journal. You can start anywhere, and each one makes the others work better.
Do I have to book a call to get started?
For the journal and Mindset Groups, no. You can buy the journal on Amazon and enroll in a cohort directly whenever you are ready. Healthstarter 1:1 always starts with a free call, so we can both be sure it is the right fit before you enroll. Either way, the call is a real conversation, not a sales pitch.
Do I need to be in Mindset Groups to work with Heba 1:1?
No. Mindset Groups stands on its own for any goal. Healthstarter 1:1 includes a seat in the next Mindset Groups cohort that starts during your three months, and joining is optional. Many clients love having a group behind them, and if you would rather keep your work private, you still get the full private coaching.

Payments & the guarantee

How do payments work?
The Eight Moments journal is sold through Amazon, so it ships and checks out there. Mindset Groups is a one-time Stripe payment, with no subscription and no auto-renewal. Healthstarter 1:1 is paid after your free call, and we go over the investment and payment options together on that call.
Is there a money-back guarantee?
Yes. Both Mindset Groups and Healthstarter 1:1 come with a 14-day money-back guarantee, counted from your cohort's start date or your first private session. If you attend your first session, keep up your daily Eight Moments practice, genuinely engage with your accountability partner, and it still isn't the right fit, reach out within those first 14 days and we'll refund you in full. The only ask is that you give it a real try, because growth takes participation, and the guarantee is here so the only risk you're taking is showing up for yourself.
Do I need to buy the Eight Moments journal separately if I join a cohort?
No. Every program includes the Eight Moments journal, so it arrives with your cohort or your Healthstarter package. You can also buy the journal on its own, without joining a program, on Amazon for $38.99. It's a great place to start, and it makes a meaningful gift.

How the cohorts run

When do cohorts run, and how long are they?
Cohorts run seasonally, and each one lasts eight weeks with four live group sessions every other week, plus weekly check-ins with your accountability partner in between. Each group is capped at eight, and the next one is forming now for January. Seats are held in the order people enroll, and the start date is confirmed with the group once it fills. When a cohort wraps, you are simply invited to the next season, and many members return season after season with a fresh goal and a new accountability match.
Is everything virtual?
Yes. Every session is live and virtual, so you can join from anywhere. Traveling usually doesn't mean missing anything, and between sessions your accountability partner and daily check-ins keep your momentum going.
What happens after the eight weeks?
The cohort ends, but the growth doesn't have to. There is no pressure and no auto-renewal. If the season worked for you, you are welcome back for the next one, and some members are on their third cohort.
